Yes, they import it and put it in the reactor core where rods slow down the energy given off then it turns a generator which creates power

The energy in uranium is used to make electricity in a nuclear power plant. How is the energy stored in uranium?
in the nucleus
Where can you harness uranium?
In a nuclear fission reactor power plant
What are the fuel sources for a nuclear power plant?
Natural uranium
Which is more expensive fuel or uranium?
Uranium is more expensive, but the kWh in a nuclear power plant is more cheaper.
How is uranium used as a fossil fuel?
Uranium is not a fossil fuel; uranium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors.
What equipment is used in a nuclear power plant?
Uranium
What is the atom of a nuclear power plant?
Uranium is the fuel that is used.
The energy in uranium is used to make electricity in a nuclear power plant. How is the energy stored in uranium?
in the nucleus
What is the uraniums use in nuclear power plant?
Uranium is used as nuclear fuel.
Which isotope is most commonly used as fuel in nuclear power plant?
Uranium 235
Can a nuclear power plant burn uranium?
A nuclear power plant does use uranium as fuel It "burns" it in the nuclear sense not the chemical sense
What is a nuclearur power plant?
a nuclear power plant produces electricity from uranium 235
What power plant uses uranium?
The majority of commercial nuclear power reactors use uranium (natural or enriched) as nuclear fuel.
What Power plant that uses uranium as a source of energy?
Uranium (or plutonium) is a source of energy (nuclear fuel) in nuclear power plants.
What type of plant uses uranium?
Nuclear power plants all use uranium to some degree. There are only two radioactive elements found on Earth in sufficient concentrations to mine that can be used for nuclear power. These are uranium and thorium. Thorium cycle power plants of various types are being researched and developed, but none are currently producing power for an electric grid. Uranium-233 is part of the thorium cycle, so uranium will be present in thorium cycle reactors, and its energy is used there. There are a number of nuclear plant designs that use plutonium, though they are not common. None is producing power in the United States. And even these also use uranium. In fact, the plutonium is produced from uranium.
Is splitting Uranium in a power plant a nuclear change?
Yes
Where can you harness uranium?
In a nuclear fission reactor power plant
